Lights Out: Abandoned American Drive-Ins

Starlite Drive-In

The Starlite Drive-In in downtown Brenham, Texas could be yours if you’re willing to pay. As of 2012, it was for sale. In its operational peak, it could fit up to 300 cars.

The only part of the theater that still exists is the screen tower, which has the words “Starlite Theatre” painted on it in huge cursive letters. There are parts of the tower that have obviously been replaced in a different material, and the nearby concession building was torn down in 2016, so it’s probably only a matter of time before the screen tower is taken down, too.
